Class Histor y In September, 1935, we, a group of excited Junior High students, gathered at Marietta High School. We spent our first year getting accustomed to the new school, new way of teaching, and the Honorable Upper Classmen. We were led by Charles DeFoor, Ray Kemp, and W. C. Sockwell. In sports we were represented by Anne Tomlinson, Nellie Mae Frey, Hene Scheaffer, Monterey Dowda, Nancy Crowe, Mary Emily Claiborne, Doyle Dickerson, Elgin Mitchell, Howard Butler, and James Cordell. During this year our class with all its talent won the Stunt Night. As sophomores we were led by Anne Tomlinson, Howard Butler, and James Millar. As a class we not only made good records in sports but in scholastic work also. At the end of this year two of our teachers who had helped us in our struggles left M. H. S. — Miss Faith Porch and Miss Edna Taylor. Monterey Dowda, Ralph Marler, and Hene Scheaffer were Class presidents our junior year. At the beginning of this year, thirty-one new students entered our class, and five new teachers were added to our faculty — Miss Ira Irby, Miss Maxalynn Mourane, Miss Martha Pinson, Mr. R. A. Tipton, and Mr. J. R. Timmerman. The Pitchfork staff was elected and went to the meeting of the Georgia Scholastic Press Association at Athens, Georgia. As juniors we were given a chance to show our ability as entertainers by giving the seniors a banquet. The banquet was a real success and was enjoyed by everyone. Miss Nellie Dykes, our Home Economics teacher, and Mr. Watkins left at the end of this year. September, 1938, we started our last year as high school students. Our class officers were Payton Hill, Herman Howard, Ralph Marler, and Harry Hames. At the beginning of this year Miss Nelle Legwen, Miss Mary Lillian Murphey, Miss Mildred Sessions, Mr. C. H. Quarterman, Mr. J. R. Callison, and Mr. E. D. Covington were added to our faculty. We have enjoyed with great pleasure this year the music of our newly organized band and our orchestra. We have also enjoyed our trip to the state capitol and the White Provision Company, the presentation of our Senior play, and the moving pictures which have been shown in chapel. In sports we were represented this year by Eddie Lay, Arthur Bacon, B. F. McLemore, Earl Caldwell, Max Parnell, Herman Howard, and many of our former sportsmen. The Pitchfork staff went to Athens again this year and was awarded a Certificate of Distinction. Our Annual is a priceless treasure to us, and we are all deeply indebted to Mr. Tipton who has so willingly given his time and ability to make our Annual a success. Our honor graduates are Catherine Burton, Sarah Power, Ed Groover, Mary Emily Claiborne, Bertha Bell Moore, and Gladys Lawrence. As Seniors of ' 39 we have climbed to the height of our High School days. Although we are happy, there is a feeling of sorrow which is quite sincere. As a class we have shared in all branches of school life. High School days are our happiest days, where fondest memories will linger forever.
